For aluminum's a 2016 will work great. A 28.75" 2016 w/3-4" feathers and a 125gr point weighs in at 477gr. If you want a heavier shaft,a 2018 with a heavy point(145gr +)will tune.

For carbons,a Carbon Express Heritage 150 will work also.A 28.5" Heritage scales at 487gr(no weights or tubes)w/3-4" feathers and a 125gr point. If ya go the carbon route,leave them full-length and cut a little off at a time to tune.

Most of my bows are 49-54lbs and another carbon that shoots great are the Beman MFX Classic 400's with a 100gr brass insert,3-4" feathers,& a 125gr point.Mine are cut to 29.5" and they fly perfectly out of all of them.they also weigh in at 530gr

BTW,Bowhunters Superstore has great prices on the Carbon Express shafts
